- About this Video
- Former Red Bull Air Race pilot Frank Versteegh introduces you to the Budapest 2008 race track. The first tricky element of the track is the Chain Bridge. Pilots have to reach maximum entry speed before they fly underneath the bridge and at the same time, they know that there is a point-of-no-return. After the chain bridge, the track consists of various high speed turns, a quadro without the usual 270 degree turn and half cuban eights - a so called repositioning maneuver.
